Polygraph attempts to model dependencies between container objects (e.g.
an HTML page) and embedded objects (e.g., an image on a page). Polygraph
server inserts markup tags into the generated content. Polygraph client
parsers the content and may request embedded objects, similarly to what
a browser would do.

See PGL's Server and Content descriptions for what knobs Polygraph has
to configure the above model. PolyMix-2 configuration files have real
life examples.

The result of the command below may give you an idea where the model is
coded:
        fgrep -w tag polygraph/src/*.cc

HTH,

Alex.
